Models

Complete Zen LM model family -- 49 models across 10 modalities

Zen Models

Zen LM by Hanzo AI is a comprehensive model family of 49 models across 10 modalities. Each model is built using the Zen MoDE (Mixture of Distilled Experts) methodology — curating the best open-source foundations and fusing them into a unified, high-performance family. 15 models are available via the cloud API at api.hanzo.ai. All open-weight models are on HuggingFace.

API Usage

All API models are accessed via the Hanzo SDK. API key prefix: hk-.

from hanzoai import Hanzo

client = Hanzo(api_key="hk-your-api-key")

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="zen4",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}],
)
print(response.choices[0].message.content)

Open Weights
